  • Resting Friday
    LeMahieu is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Giants.

    Advice: After being reinstated from the 60-day injured list Tuesday, LeMahieu played in all three games against the Angels, going 2-for-9 with three runs and three walks. He'll begin Friday's contest in the dugout, and Oswaldo Cabrera will start at third base and bat eighth against Giants right-hander Jordan Hicks. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:51 pm

  • Brewers option Owen Miller back to Triple-A
    Brewers optioned INF/OF Owen Miller to Triple-A Nashville.

    Advice: With Rhys Hoskins (hamstring) returning from the injured list on Friday, there was no longer room on the bench for Miller. He’ll return to an everyday role at Triple-A Nashville until his services are needed again at the big league level. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:51 pm

  • Back in lineup Friday
    Hoskins will serve as the designated hitter and bat sixth in Friday's game against the White Sox.

    Advice: Hoskins has been out of action since May 13 due to a right hamstring strain, and he was activated off the injured list Friday. He'll face off against White Sox right-hander Erick Fedde. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:48 pm
     
  • Brewers activate Rhys Hoskins from 10-day IL
    Brewers activated 1B Rhys Hoskins from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: The 31-year-old slugger will make his triumphant return to the Brewers’ starting lineup on Friday night against the White Sox. Prior to landing on the injured list with a right hamstring strain, Hoskins was hitting .233/.340/.474 with nine homers and 27 RBI through his first 38 games. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:47 pm
     
  • Sent back to Nashville
    The Brewers optioned Miller to Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

    Advice: Miller was recalled from Nashville earlier in May to provide depth as Rhys Hoskins (hamstring) headed to the injured list. Now that Hoskins is back, Miller will be pushed back to Triple-A. The 27-year-old infielder has slashed .185/.185/.222 across 27 big-league plate appearances this season, but he figures to be on the shortlist for a return to Milwaukee should the Brewers run into more depth issues.

  • Activated from IL
    The Brewers reinstated Hoskins (hamstring) from the injured list Friday.

    Advice: Hoskins has been on the injured list since he strained his right hamstring during a game against Pittsburgh on May 13. He was originally expected to come off the IL during Milwaukee's upcoming road series in Philadelphia, but the slugging first baseman will instead return a few days early without playing in any rehab games. Hoskins should immediately return to a near-everyday role for the Brewers, though he may see more action as a DH as he gets his hamstring used to playing in games again. Owen Miller was optioned to Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:42 pm
     
  • Mark Canha scratched Friday with sore left hip
    Mark Canha was scratched from the Tigers’ starting lineup on Friday due to soreness in his left hip.

    Advice: The 35-year-old outfielder is considered day-to-day. Andy Ibanez will replace him in the team’s starting lineup at second base with Colt Keith shifting to the designated hitter spot. The Tigers are already without Kerry Carpenter (back) for a significant amount of time, so they really can’t afford to have Canha to be out for long. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:18 pm

  • Scratched Friday
    Canha was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Red Sox due to left hip soreness.

    Advice: Canha was slated to serve as the designated hitter and bat in the cleanup spot Friday, but the 35-year-old was removed from the lineup due to the injury. Colt Keith will shift to DH and Andy Ibanez will start at second base, while Gio Urshela moves up to fourth in the batting order against Red Sox right-hander Tanner Houck.

  • Luke Raley (lat) returns to lineup on Friday
    Luke Raley (lat) returned to the Mariners’ starting lineup on Friday night.

    Advice: The 29-year-old slugger sat out Thursday’s contest due to lat soreness, but it appears to have been only a minor issue. Raley will start in left field and bat eighth against Angels’ right-hander Jose Soriano on Friday evening in Seattle. On the season, he’s slashing .260/.299/.394 with four homers, 12 RBI and four stolen bases in 134 plate appearances across 45 ballgames. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:55 pm
